doomination Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Just got an email from Princeton!! I was worried about them because I only mentioned one prof in my personal statement, and he's the dept chair so he may not be taking students. Also for anyone wondering, Stanford's visit weekend is 3/5 to 3/7, and Princeton has two: Feb 20-21 and March 13-14 Edited January 16, 2015 by doomination
cafe_au_lait Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Got my UW-Madison admit by email this morning! Visits are March 6-7 and 20-21. Really excited.
Argon Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Many congrats to everyone's new acceptances! You're on quite the roll there, doomination
tulips Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Congrats everyone! Looks like they wanted to get out a lot of acceptances before the long weekend! Figured I'd also post recruitment weekend visits of places that I know of in case people were wondering: Berkeley is Feb 5-8 and Feb 19-22 UCSB is Feb 22-24 and Mar 12-15 Northwestern is Feb 5-8 and Feb 12-15 Penn is tentatively (haven't gotten the details yet) Feb 19-22 and Mar 5-8 UT Austin is Mar 5-8 Penn State is Feb 12-15 Update, just heard from MIT! Recruitment weekends are Mar 6-7 and 13-14. Edited January 16, 2015 by tulips
cafe_au_lait Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Anyone know why some of the UW Madison results are showing interview rather than acceptance? My email was a straight admission, seems kind of weird.
doomination Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 thanks argon tulips, when you say you heard from MIT, does that mean you were offered admission?
tulips Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) thanks argon tulips, when you say you heard from MIT, does that mean you were offered admission? Yes, I was offered admission! I received a call and an email shortly afterwards. Apologies for the ambiguity Edited January 16, 2015 by tulips
doomination Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 congrats! I'm hoping for a phone call now haha
Clausius Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Anyone know why some of the UW Madison results are showing interview rather than acceptance? My email was a straight admission, seems kind of weird. I was one of the interviews. The email stated they wanted to know more about future goals and past experience during visitation weekend, and the decision would be made quickly after that. It wasn't ambiguous, so I'm sure you were just straight accepted. Congrats!
cafe_au_lait Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Thanks Clausius, congrats to you too! Sounds like you should have an admission once they get whatever info they need from you. Congrats on MIT tulips!
tulips Posted January 18, 2015 Posted January 18, 2015 Thanks doomination and cafe_au_lait! I ended up hearing back from four schools in the past 36 hours, so the wait is over for me now (crazy feeling to not anxiously/obsessively check my email now). I hope everyone else hears back from their top choices soon, if you haven't already!
Argon Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) To clarify a previous post, the UPenn visiting dates are: February 19th-21st and March 5th-March 7th (yes, Thursday through Saturday). Edited January 20, 2015 by argon214
beserkerolaf Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Argon out of curiosity, when did you submit your Berkeley, Stanford, and MIT apps?
Argon Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) Berkeley on 12/5, Stanford I don't know but probably the same day or so (i.e. ~12/5), and MIT ChemE mere hours before the deadline Edited January 20, 2015 by argon214
beserkerolaf Posted January 20, 2015 Posted January 20, 2015 Okay good haha. I did most of mine in late Nov. and early Dec. just was wondering if anyone who had applied around those periods had heard back already.
tulips Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 Okay good haha. I did most of mine in late Nov. and early Dec. just was wondering if anyone who had applied around those periods had heard back already. FWIW, I submitted my applications in late November and heard back from Berkeley (Dec 23), Stanford (Jan 15), and MIT (Jan 16). So decisions are slowly trickling out.
beserkerolaf Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 Heard from Stanford last night, interview!
gusuabe04 Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 People, I got into UT Austin (Dec 23), Caltech (Jan 9), NW (Jan 10) and Upenn and Princeton (Jan 20), but I am getting nervous about Stanford and Berkeley. I know things continue to trickle in into mid Feb but it looks like I have missed out on the initial wave of acceptances. Good luck everyone! If we don't here something this week, the outlook is grim.
Argon Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 I'm feeling the same way about Stanford and Berkeley. I'm thinking the first main wave of acceptances for them are done. Ah well!
gusuabe04 Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 I'm feeling the same way about Stanford and Berkeley. I'm thinking the first main wave of acceptances for them are done. Ah well! What is strange is the limited number of people sharing outcomes on the "results page". Seems like we have a pretty quiet bunch in this cohort, perhaps myself included.
delistyle Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Hey has anyone heard from Cornell yet? Also if anyone was curious about Georgia Tech or Hopkins, I got acceptances from those two, so they have sent some out.
minoooaaa Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Hi everybody I have applied to NYU, Drexel, Clemson, Oregon State University, Washington State University, University of Rhode Island so far. I have 1.5 years research experience and one summer internship. My GPA is 3.35/4 and my GRE score is V:155, Q:165 and W:4. My TOEFL score is 109/120. I haven't got any admission or rejection emails so far. Should I start to worry? When do you think the emails will come?
Argon Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Just got into Berkeley, so there is still hope for more of you!
doomination Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Congrats! Did they and an email or did they call you?
Argon Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 I just got a call with an email said to follow (and thank you!).
